Victor Lindelof believes his ability from set-pieces could help him to start repaying Manchester United's €35 million investment in his talent.
He has been acquired to further bolster the defensive ranks at Old Trafford, with the 22-year-old considered to be a shrewd acquisition for the present and future.
"I have enjoyed my time at Benfica enormously and I have learned a lot there".
After three years he moved up to the A team and has not looked back since, winning three Portuguese league titles, playing in the Champions League and making his global debut against Turkey in March 2016.
Lindelof is expected to try and hold down a regular starting spot in the heart of Manchester United's defence next season alongside Eric Bailly.
Mourinho also has England pair Chris Smalling and Phil Jones at his disposal, along with Argentina global Marcos Rojo, while Dutch utility man Daley Blind has slotted into central defence on occasion.

Victor Lindelof has underlined his intention to establish himself as Manchester United's top free-kick taker next season.
"Our season past year showed us that we need options and quality to add depth to the squad and Victor is the first to join us this summer".
In a Q&A with MUTV, he added: "I've spoken to him".
Lindelof will get the chance to join up and play with his new team-mates in the summer when United go on a pre-season tour of the US.
"Of course there are some great players here in my position", said the Swede.
"It feels great to know the coach wants you to finally be here". I trust myself and it's going to be tough but I'm looking forward to it. It's a dream, something all players want. It's very important for me to hear what he has to say.
